I have a confession.... I do not like APPLE PIE.... I know, I know.... I'm unAmerican.... I've heard it all!
Regardless, I've found these fabulous, mini apple pies in mason jars that I'd love to make! They're so adorable and I think they'd look great at each table setting for the holidays, as well as, fantastic decor or favors for fall and winter wedding receptions!
I found this fabulous idea at Pure Wow!

Mini Mason Jar Apple Pies Are Adorable and Delicious

Cutest. Dessert. Ever.

MAKES 6 MINI PIES

START TO FINISH: 1 HOUR 15 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 Honeycrisp apples, peeled and chopped (or other baking apple, such as Granny Smith or McIntosh)

½ cup brown sugar

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons cinnamon

½ teaspoon ginger

½ teaspoon cloves

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

2 packages store-bought pie dough (4 circles total)

1 egg

1 tablespoon water

1½ teaspoons turbinado sugar

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Have ready six ¼ pint (½ cup) mason jars on a baking sheet.

2. In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apples and sauté until nearly tender, 4 to 5 minutes.

4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough until it is flat and slightly thinner than it originally was. Cut the dough into six 3-inch circles and six 2-inch circles.

5. Press a 3-inch circle into a mason jar, pressing it firmly to the base and sides and taking care not to poke holes in the dough. Trim any excess from the top edge with a paring knife. Repeat with the remaining 3-inch circles and jars.

6. Scoop the cooled filling into the pastry-lined jars, mounding it about ½ inch over the top rim.

7. Place the 2-inch rounds over the filling and tuck the edges under so they meet the edge of the jar. Crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork. Chill the pies for 10 minutes.

8. While the pies chill, whisk the egg and water together to combine. Brush the egg wash over each pie top, and then sprinkle the top of each with ½ teaspoon turbinado sugar. Cut small vents into the top of each pie with a paring knife.

9. Bake until the pies are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.

It's funny how sometimes we let life get away from us... Time passes... We get preoccupied... Sometimes with good and other times with the not so good...
I find myself today, after goods and bads, remembering when, how and why it all started... This thing we call 'blogging'. That lost time of my life when I left life as I knew it behind and entered into my lost world... The world of being disabled... I didn't know what to do with myself. It felt as if time had suddenly stopped for me and I didn't know what to or where to turn....
I found blogging!
